Have you ever thought of a perfect world?
or
Have you ever thought of living in this world, perfect?
Well to start, we all know the world has never been perfect since the beginning of time. Geometrically speaking, The world was never a perfect sphere and it continues to evolve up until now, changing not for the better though, but for the worst.
As time goes by, each change in every generation brings both good and bad effect. Although technology brought advantages that may have helped people in many ways, making things easier and faster on the other hand, most of them have affected us mentally and socially. Technology such as; computers, video games and home entertainment systems made us unaware of the fact that it has been controlling us.
In the following paragraphs, I will show you how technology would affect us greatly and totally change our lifestyle in the near future.
I know everyone is familiar with the movie Matrix, let me ask you one question? do you know how close we are to this reality?
Everybody might not be aware of this but I think a few years from now, Virtual reality will become our world.
I will show you 3 reasons to believe that we are getting close to this.
1. Check out this Wii2 game console conceptualized by Nintendo. With the application of brain wave technology we can control everything with just our brain.
Our brain is the center of the nervous system,close to the primary sensory apparatus of vision, hearing, balance, taste, and smell. Brains control behavior either by activating muscles, or by causing secretion of chemicals such as hormones. With it we are capable of extracting information from the environment and acting in response to it. In short our brain controls everything which can be stimulated by many factors. Stimulating a brain alone allows us to feel all 5 senses as though it was real eventhough we haven't actually felt it yet.
Remember when you see a food, you drool coz you know how it would taste, you would never touch a torch coz you know it's hot and it hurts and you would never jump off the building coz you know what death is, eventhough you haven't actually experienced it.
Is there a time when you felt your dream was real? There are cases when you have felt falling off or dying in a dream and suddenly you wake up believing it was real, correct?
Our brain alone allows us to feel all senses without even actually doing anything but just thinking of it, so a virtual simulation is really possible.
2. What if we use this brain wave technology to login to a three dimensional world, a world that is virtually perfect for us. Think about second life.
Second Life (SL) is a virtual world developed by Linden Lab that launched on June 23, 2003 and is accessible via the Internet. It enables its users, called Residents, to interact with each other through avatars. Residents can explore, meet other residents, socialize, participate in individual and group activities, and create and trade virtual property and services with one another, or travel throughout the world.
In this world we become what we always wanted to be, perfect no flaws, no imperfections and without disabilities.
As of now 7 out of 10 people are online browsing the internet and community sites and that includes both you and me. Time will come 100% of our world's population are sitting in their homes connected through a network and enjoying a life in the virtual world. Sooner or later everyone will live by it.
3. Three dimensional models nowadays are becoming so real that it becomes hard to identify the real thing from the digitally designed and created object.
So if you are connected to a virtual world mimicing reality close to 100%, it would really be hard to wake up from this man made illusion.
